The all time best selling golf video game franchise hits the links again this summer with heightened drama, new courses, a USGA championship, and MotionPlus support for Wii virtual golfers, Electronic Arts announced today.
Tiger Woods PGA 10, much like the man himself, plans a comeback with this year with a slew of new and dynamic game-play elements including expanded crowds surrounding every hole mounting the tension of a pressure putt, a real-time weather system directly effecting course conditions, and most intriguingly a new television broadcast style presentation featuring ESPN’s own Scott Van Pelt, and Golf Channel’s Kelly Tilghman.
“No player has elevated the game of golf more than Tiger Woods and we celebrate his return with a game that recreates the atmosphere of the PGA TOUR like never before,” said Executive Producer Mike Taramykin. “Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 continues the long-standing tradition of providing an authentic golf experience that is accessible to skilled and casual gamers alike.”
I’ve always enjoyed the Tiger Woods series of titles, and I appreciate and admire the stunning visuals and competitive online modes my 360 offers me, however, I must say the simulator type experience my Wii achieves trumps them all.
With PGA Tour 10, Wii fans can experience a true 1:1 swing relationship via the Wii MotionPlus accessory.‚ Shots can controlled and executed in an authentic matter, granting the player the opportunity to draw or fade a shot in the same, real life manner.
EA Tiburon is handling development of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 and will be available on Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, and Nintendo Wii this summer.
